After changing her master, she turned to the ruthless way, and the whole sect knelt down

The man is threatening himself!

Xie Liuyin was clearly aware of this, and she was even more aware that she didn't have the ability to refuse yet.

The moment Xie Liuyin realized that Hua Lingxue was poisoned, he fed her an antidote pill.

But after so much time had passed, not only did Hua Lingxue not wake up, the dark purple color on her lips showed no signs of fading, and black lines were spreading under her eyes.

This is clearly a sign that the poison is gradually penetrating deeper into the body. If they don't get the antidote, they might really die!

After understanding this, Xie Liuyin closed his eyes and said, "Since you have said so, if I refuse again, I will seem ungrateful. However, please understand that I am only a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage. If you make any excessive demands, I will not be able to fulfill them even if I risk my life."

"Also, I need you to help me remove the poison from these people first, so I can help you without any scruples."

"No." The man answered bluntly, as if he would not make any conditions to Xie Liuyin.

Upon hearing this, Xie Liuyin immediately sat down on the ground and said shamelessly, "Forget it. Who knows how dangerous what you want me to do is? What if I can't come back after I go there, and you don't detoxify my companions, and they die? Wouldn't that be a huge loss for me?"

"Agreeing means death, and not agreeing also means death, so why not just die here together?"

Seeing this, the man frowned slightly under his black hood.

He was silent for a moment before changing the subject, "I can help them remove half of the poison and let them wake up first. Once you've finished helping me, I'll remove the remaining half."

"What kind of poison is so magical that it can be cured half by half?" Xie Liuyin obviously didn't believe it.

The man was now clearly impatient: "Other people's poison won't work, but mine will."

"Stop talking nonsense. Are you still going to make this deal?" He seemed to have sensed something and turned his head to look somewhere in the cave.

Xie Liuyin subconsciously followed his gaze, but found nothing.

She vaguely guessed that the monster was probably hiding from something.

After thinking for a moment, Xie Liuyin took out a contract: "Sir, please sign a contract with me first. Once the contract is completed, I will help you."

The level of this contract is not low. Even if the big monster in front of you signs it, he will be bound by the contract and it will be impossible to break the contract.

This is also one of the life-saving props that Xianyue prepared for his apprentice before leaving.

The man agreed without much hesitation. Xie Liuyin first smeared a drop of blood on the contract, and then threw the contract to the other party.

The demon didn't hesitate and quickly cut his finger, leaving his blood on the contract.

The contract flickered a few times before turning into tiny dots and dissipating, which marked the finalization of the contract between the two.

After doing all this, the snake demon took the initiative to drag its long tail to Xie Liuyin's side and detoxify the people who were poisoned by him.

His method of detoxification is quite unique, which is to feed people his blood.

Xie Liuyin frowned as he watched this scene. If he hadn't seen that Hua Lingxue and the others looked much better after being fed blood, and showed signs of waking up, he would have known that.

In addition, the contract was still in effect, so she really suspected that the monster was deceiving her.

After feeding blood to everyone, Hua Lingxue, who was the first to swallow the snake blood, finally opened her eyes in a daze.

"Junior Master, what happened to us?" Hua Lingxue felt pain all over her body, especially in her head.

She couldn't quite remember what had happened before. She only vaguely remembered that they had just found the pond and were attacked before they had time to go down to look for the mermaid pearl.

Then she was hit by something heavy, scratching her skin. The next second, she fainted on the spot and lost consciousness.

"It's nothing. We were attacked just now, but we are safe now. You go check on the others first, and we will leave here after everyone wakes up." Xie Liuyin didn't intend to tell her the truth now.

This place was too small to be able to perform their moves. Moreover, it was pitch black everywhere. If the snake demon tried to attack again, they would have a hard time resisting.

Let's explain everything clearly after we get out, and it will be more convenient for Hua Lingxue and the others to do something.

The rest of the people woke up one after another. After Princess Luo saw the appearance of the snake demon clearly, she had some guesses in her mind.

She took the initiative to approach Xie Liuyin and asked, "Sister Liuyin, do you want to help?"

"No need, let's talk about it after we get out." Xie Liuyin understood what she meant, but suppressed her urge to take action.

It is very difficult to enter the cave, but it is much easier to leave.

The serpent knew a better way to get there that didn't involve crossing the lake bottom.

As he led everyone out, the snake demon whispered to her, "My blood can only counteract poison with poison, temporarily removing some of the poison from their bodies. But if the remaining poison isn't removed within ten days, they will still die. And the remaining poison can't be removed with blood."

"What do you mean by saying this to me? Are you worried that I will go back on my word?" Xie Liuyin sent a message back.

The snake demon didn't say it directly, but still said: "Your companions are full of malice towards me, and some even want to attack me. I think it would be better for you to persuade them. Don't lose your life because of a momentary impulse."

This snake demon was really sharp. He actually guessed that she was going to join forces with others to control him and then take his blood to detoxify him.

But he really misunderstood Xie Liuyin. This thought only popped up in her mind for a moment and was quickly dismissed by her.

The snake demon's strength was obviously superior to theirs. If they really fought with it, who knows how many people would die.

Now their lives are in this man's hands, and she has even signed a contract with him. Xie Liuyin certainly has no intention of breaking the contract.

Xie Liuyin didn't want to bear the consequences of violating the contract.

"Don't get me wrong, sir. Since we have a contract, I will definitely fulfill my agreement with you." To prevent the snake demon from having wild thoughts, Xie Liuyin quickly made him a promise.

The snake demon snorted softly, "That's better."

After walking for a while, everyone reached the ground.

After seeing the sunlight above their heads, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The previous darkness had greatly affected their mood and brought them considerable pressure.

As soon as they reached the ground, the snake demon said to Xie Liuyin in front of everyone: "If you have any instructions, please tell us quickly. We need to leave as soon as possible."

After saying this, he consciously walked away, leaving Xie Liuyin enough time to explain to his companions.

Xie Liuyin knew that the snake demon must be very anxious, so she didn't say anything more and simply told them about the transaction between herself and the snake demon in the cave.

"Don't worry. I made a contract with him, and he won't hurt me. I'm just going to be away for a while. You can continue searching for treasures according to the treasure map, or you can rest here and wait for my return. It's up to you."

"Don't worry, I will come back safe and sound."
